RX8--Transmission (Manual & Auto)

Is the resistance between terminal 2U at the

TCM connector and terminal J at solenoid

valve wiring harness-side connector 5.0

ohms or less?

No Repair open circuit.

Yes Go to the next step.
6

Is the resistance between ground terminal

2M or 2Q at the TCM connector and body

ground 5.0 ohms or less? No Repair open ground circuit.

Yes Go to the next step.

7

Stop the engine.

Disconnect the solenoid valve connector.

Measure the resistance between the

following solenoid valve connector

terminals.

(See SOLENOID VALVE INSPECTION .)

• Terminals EJ (shift solenoid A)


• Terminals FJ (shift solenoid B)


• Terminals HJ (shift solenoid C)


• Terminals IJ (shift solenoid F)


• Terminals GJ (TCC solenoid)

Are the resistances normal?

No

Inspect for open circuit in the malfunctioning

solenoid related wiring harnesses.

• If the wiring harnesses are okay, inspect if the
  solenoids are stuck mechanically.

Yes Reverify symptoms of malfunction.

8

Perform the stall test. (See Stall Speed Test

.)

Is the stall speed normal?

No

Overhaul the transmission and repair or replace any

malfunction parts. (See TCM

REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
